SAVE America Act and Mail-in Voting Restrictions

March 31 – March 31, 2026

Where Things Stand

President Trump signed an executive order that restricts mail-in voting by requiring the Department of Homeland Security to verify voter citizenship. This order forces states to use federal lists to determine who is eligible for a mail-in ballot. The move shifts election authority from local officials to the federal government and creates new requirements for voters to prove their status.
